<div class="field field-name-body field-type-text-with-summary field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even" property="content:encoded"> <p><img alt="Creepy Snowmen" src="/files/ghoulfm/blogs/2009/October_November/skelesnowmen.jpg" style="margin: 10px; float: left" /><br />I've started experimenting with scary snowmen, and snapped a quick photo to show you the first two out of the gate.</p>
<p>Decided to go with a classic look for one, from his carrot to his buttons. And the other has a snow-skull for his head.</p>
<p>I'll take some nicer photos when I get them set up in their winter setting. I have two shows coming up in the city, and I need to update the table display to reflect the change in season. I'm fairly excited to have it all set up because I've never done a creepy Christmas display. It's like rediscovering Halloween <em>and</em> Christmas decorating all over again.</p>
<p>My only apprehension as I travel down this path is the unavoidable references or comparisons to Nightmare Before Christmas. It distracts me during the creation process, and I've already steered away from a couple of interesting ideas because of it. It's a bit frustrating.</p>
<p>I know I can't stop people from equating Halloween-flavoured Christmas decorations with Tim Burton, and I'll try to infuse these pieces with Ghoul Friday Flair until they brim over with my own artistic signature. It's the best I can do.</p>
